I'm excited to be back on the blog and sharing Lauren & Joey's awesome wedding held on the roof of the Eastside Exchange in Portland earlier this summer. I spent the earlier part of the day at the Nines Hotel with Lauren and her team of amazing bridesmaids while they were getting ready. We all shared a pretty emotional moment when Lauren read a heartfelt letter written to her from Joey. I then headed over to the Exchange where the gentlemen were hanging out pre ceremony in the locker room, sippin' a little whiskey and waiting for things to get started. Meanwhile on the roof, guests began to arrive and enjoy some cocktails in the sun while serenaded by members of the local band We Three (who were awesome btw). The ceremony was beautiful with with an awesome mixture of laughter and love and the Portland skyline in the background. Lauren, Joey, and I then went on a little walk around the surrounding blocks to shoot a few photos and then headed back for the party. The speeches were heartfelt and hilarious, one of the highlights being a story with photographic evidence about Joey dressing up as a University of Oregon cheerleader. I gotta admit, he looked pretty good, he even made it into a magazine spread. The party continued with dancing and late night Voodoo Donuts. An awesome time was had by all and I am so thankful I got to be a party of such an amazing night.
